the unemployed who, by the way, pay unemployment insurance and before they got unemployed paid the taxes that support food stamps, has been widely accepted in this society, including by ronald reagan. i have no idea why this guy, cuccinelli, would want to borrow one of the worst lines ever uttered in american presidential politics and put it out there as he's starting to run for governor of virginia. he needs to get support in northern virginia. this is going to hurt him there. he's going to have a very tough race against terry mcauliffe, and he may actually break the streak that's been going on for decades that whoever wins the presidency, their party loses the governorship of virginia the next time. michael steele months ago i think on this program with me said the 47% line was a disaster. i don't know why anybody would repeat it. >> let me ask you this, it comes down to numbers. everybody knows there's some people are who cheating, some who aren't looking for a job. do you build a whole philosophy about maybe 5% of the people on welfare are just taking it easy or the republican notion

the next four points, illegal immigrants register, pay fine and back taxes plus pass background check. work history and current employment required. illegal immigrants at back of the line. exceptions for immigrants who came to u.s. as children and farm workers. >> here what we're seeing is the fairness component. if you came here illegally we are going to give you a shot at the american dream, citizenship, but you got to go to the back of the line. that's what differs from the 1986 immigration reform. where they just said, apply for citizenship. you can get long-term residency for five years. then become a citizen. that left a very bad taste in people's mouth. especially if you've been here waiting in the legal route. >> real quickly let's show everybody the federal government new cnn/orc poll. the question being should the federal government develop a plan for undocumented immigrants to become legal residents? 53% say yes. then we have this. this is really interesting, victoria. because this bipartisan group of senators coming out today almost stealing the thunder from the president'

that's in tax reform. and we can do those things, like i said, and be wise and plan ahead and not bury our heads in the sand and not obsess about what the deficit's going to be the next year or two, that worry about what the long-term debt's going to be 10, 15, 20 years from now. that's what bowles has been saying. he's been saying don't worry about the short-term deficits. >> and what's the relationship between the -- what's the relationship between the cost of the debt and the size of the economy? because that's actually the key. it isn't the absolute amount of the debt. it's what is the debt service which right now is actually quite low because interest rates are so low as a proportion of the economy. it is a more complex formula. >> yeah. but as erskine bowles says and simpson says as well, you bring up an absolutely fantastic point. right now a big chunk of our budget is going to servicing the debt. and that's happening when we have historically low interest rates. if interest rates go back to what th
